Alchemie Endeavour™ - Technology for Good

Delivering a low carbon future

  • The textile industry is one of the biggest polluters on the planet, generating over 3% of global CO2 emissions.
  • Without intervention, projections indicate that emissions could soar to 2.5 gigatons by 2050 under current practices.
  • The key advantage of adopting Alchemie’s digital approach to textile dyeing includes an energy consumption reduction of up to 85%.

Eliminating waste water emissions

  • Textile dyeing and finishing accounts for over 20% of global industrial waste water pollution.
  • EndeavourTM can eliminate waste water emissions and cut the amount of water being used by up to 95%, when compared to a traditional jet exhaust dyeing process.
  • Dyeing operations can now be co-located with garment production and located in water-poor regions.

More profitable production

  • The EndeavourTM process reduces operational costs by 50%.
  • Radically more flexible production delivers significant supply-chain savings.
  • The typical capital payback time for EndeavourTM production lines is 12 months.
